  • How to Find Your Readers As a Fiction Writer
    How to find Your readers as a fiction writer a 4-step workbook to walk4 you through finding your readership online Many fiction writers believe that they don’t need a platform. And while it’s true that literary agents and editors don’t expect aspiring novelists to have platforms, it’s just as true that writers must know how to find their readers if they want long-term success. Unfortunately, a lack of familiarity with the online landscape and a discomfort with putting creative work out there can cripple even the most promising book launch. This workbook will show you how to start putting your work in front of potential readers now, so that you can earn the trust and goodwill of the readership your work deserves. Building an author platform will allow you to: Sell more copies of existing books with less effort Launch a new book (or other content) successfully Get to know your readers so you can serve them better Avoid burnout so that book marketing is sustainable and rewarding Make a living as a full-time writer step 1: you Writing anything--whether it’s a novel or a tweet--starts with you. A platform will be meaningless drudgery if it doesn’t revolve around topics you love to talk about and read about. So here’s a chance to visualize yourself just as clearly as you would your next main character. This charac- ter sketch will help you pull up all the words that define you and lay them out visually, so you can inspect them as a whole.

  • Translating the Exiled Self: Reflections on Translation and Censorship*
    Intercultural Communication Studies XIV: 4 2005 Samar Attar TRANSLATING THE EXILED SELF: REFLECTIONS ON TRANSLATION AND CENSORSHIP* Samar Attar Independent Researcher Self-Translating and censorship Translators tend to select foreign literary texts for translation into their mother-tongue for different reasons. Sometimes, their selection is based on the fame of a certain writer among his or her own people, or for the awarding of a prestigious international prize to a writer, or on the recommendation of an authoritative figure: a scholar, a critic, or a publisher. At other times, however, the opposite can be true. A writer who is not known among his or her own people is translated into another language, because his or her writing subverts the values of the national tradition, or destroys certain clichés about other nations, or simply because his or her work appeals to the translator.1 But we should not entertain the illusion that literary translators are always free agents. Although their literary taste and ideology may play an important role in their selection of foreign texts they often have to consider the literary, political and economic climate of their time. They simply do not translate texts because they like them. They are very much aware of the fact that translation cannot be brought to a fruitful end unless other authoritative bodies support them, and unless a publisher is found at the end of the ordeal. In short, personal, literary, social, political and economic factors always play an important role in the selection and translation of a foreign text. Normally the literary translator, who selects or is helped in selecting a foreign text, is expected to be a master of at least two languages including his or her own native tongue.

  • ELEMENTS of FICTION – NARRATOR / NARRATIVE VOICE Fundamental Literary Terms That Indentify Components of Narratives “Fiction
    Dr. Hallett ELEMENTS OF FICTION – NARRATOR / NARRATIVE VOICE Fundamental Literary Terms that Indentify Components of Narratives “Fiction” is defined as any imaginative re-creation of life in prose narrative form. All fiction is a falsehood of sorts because it relates events that never actually happened to people (characters) who never existed, at least not in the manner portrayed in the stories. However, fiction writers aim at creating “legitimate untruths,” since they seek to demonstrate meaningful insights into the human condition. Therefore, fiction is “untrue” in the absolute sense, but true in the universal sense. Critical Thinking – analysis of any work of literature – requires a thorough investigation of the “who, where, when, what, why, etc.” of the work. Narrator / Narrative Voice Guiding Question: Who is telling the story? …What is the … Narrative Point of View is the perspective from which the events in the story are observed and recounted. To determine the point of view, identify who is telling the story, that is, the viewer through whose eyes the readers see the action (the narrator). Consider these aspects: A. Pronoun p-o-v: First (I, We)/Second (You)/Third Person narrator (He, She, It, They] B. Narrator’s degree of Omniscience [Full, Limited, Partial, None]* C. Narrator’s degree of Objectivity [Complete, None, Some (Editorial?), Ironic]* D. Narrator’s “Un/Reliability” * The Third Person (therefore, apparently Objective) Totally Omniscient (fly-on-the-wall) Narrator is the classic narrative point of view through which a disembodied narrative voice (not that of a participant in the events) knows everything (omniscient) recounts the events, introduces the characters, reports dialogue and thoughts, and all details.

    the transom review February, 2003 Vol. 3/Issue 1 Edited by Sydney Lewis Gwen Macsai’s Topic About Gwen Macsai Gwen Macsai is an award winning writer and radio producer for National Public Radio. Her essays have been heard on All Things Considered, Morning Edition and Weekend Edition Saturday with Scott Simon since 1988. Macsai is also the creator of "What About Joan," starring Joan Cusack and author of "Lipshtick," a book of humorous first person essays published by HarperCollins in February of 2000. Born and bred in Chicago (south shore, Evanston), Macsai began her career at WBEZ-FM and then moved to Radio Smithsonian at the Smithsonian Institution in Washington, DC. After working for NPR for eight years she moved to Minneapolis, MN where "Lipshtick" was born, along with the first of her three children. Then, one day as she tried to wrangle her smallish-breast-turned-gigantic- snaking-fire-hose into the mouth of her newborn babe, James L. Brooks, (Producer of the Mary Tyler Moore Show, Taxi, The Simpsons and writer of Terms of Endearment, Broadcast News and As Good As It Gets), called. He had just heard one of her essays on Morning Edition and wanted to base a sitcom on her work. In 2000, "What About Joan" premiered. The National Organization for Women chose "What About Joan" as one of the top television shows of that season, based on its non- sexist depiction and empowerment of women. Macsai graduated from the University of Illinois and lives in Evanston with her husband and three children. Copyright 2003 Atlantic Public Media Transom Review – Vol.

  • The WGC Showrunner Code Found Its Origin in the Largest Gathering Ever of Canada’S Top Showrunners
    SThheowWrGuC nner Code • From WGC members to WGC members • Insights into the craft and business of showrunning in Canada WGC SHOWRUNNER CODE The WGC Showrunner Code found its origin in the largest gathering ever of Canada’s top showrunners. In 2009, the WGC invited more than thirty member showrunners – those working on one-hour dramas, half-hour dramas and half-hour comedies, for kids and adults, in both extended run and limited run – to share their experiences of and insights into the craft and business behind the role of the showrunner. A common thread emerged: to create a good show, a production needs the formative hand of a practiced showrunner, and that writer needs to see the process through from story- breaking in the writers’ room to fine cut in the edit suite. The showrunner’s world is fraught with challenges – not the least of which is the resistance some producers bring to even acknowledging that “showrunner” is a position that exists, let alone one that should be occupied first and foremost by a writer. Writers and agents came to the WGC seeking some assistance in establishing a standard set of terms for showrunners to negotiate. The WGC Showrunner Code establishes guidelines for individual negotiations. (Note: The WGC Showrunner Code was updated in January 2013 to reflect the showrunners’ increasing involvement in the creation of convergent digital content – see page 11.) The WGC Showrunner Code sets out the conditions under which the showrunner is best positioned to ensure he or she can realize their vision and deliver the best show possible.
